LA trio Moaning are set to release their self-titled debut album on Sub Pop next month and, after sharing ‘Don’t Go’ and ‘Artificial’, they’ve got a new video for ‘Tired’.

Shot in Titmouse Studios in LA, the clip sees the band starring alongside a cute cast of characters: Casper the Hamster, Mr. Maggie the Cat and two goldfish. But this isn’t as cute and cuddly as it first appears. Instead, it’s a bit of a warped look into a dollhouse, including a bathroom that’s being covered in pink goo and a bedroom featuring a burning bed. After this and ‘Artificial’, anyone else get the impression that Moaning are really good at this more surreal clips…?

Director Ambar Navarro said: “Behind closed doors we experience a series of strange stories: A house catches fire, a giant hamster takes a bath, and a series of objects spontaneously combust. The “Tired” video plays with analog special effects, creating dream-like environments and scenarios”.
